I have had external hemorroids for years. Usually they burn or itch a little. The past few days have been unbearable. My anus is so itchy! I feel like I can't clean the area completely because it's so raw. I've been using cottonelle wipes which help clean the area, but I still feel it's not completely clean.

What can I do to ease my itchy anus?!

Doing what you are doing plus slathering some barrier cream all over the external hemmorroids right after cleaning and drying (and after each b.m.) helped me relieve the itch. Also spraying the area or sitz bathing in as warm ( hot) water as you can tolerate also helps relieve the itch. Follow up with drying thoroughly and applying cream. It may seem like a bother, but....if it helps, it's worth it.
